    There is the UniParty government and their brand of crimefighting, and then there is the rest of us who pay for it all.

    “An attack on a courthouse while in operation, trying to prevent judges from trying cases, that plainly is domestic extremism, domestic terrorism,” Garland said. “An attack simply on a government property at night or under other circumstances is a clear crime, and a serious one, and should be punished.”

    If that is “setting fire” to a building, then they are incredibly incompetent. Jeezus H Criminy. And where are the hundreds (if not thousands) who tried to.....you know.....actually overturn a valid election.......?

    Anyone wanna talk false equivalencies??? I don't condone this shit in any way, shape or form but the Right isn't just reaching, it's actually stooping........same shit, different day.

    oh i agree but we must hold the same consistency to all regardless the outcome.

    thsi is kind of like sayin a guy who tried to rob a bank but only got away with 5o bucks is not near as bad as a guy who robbed a bank and got away with 50k.

    the crime is the same regardless of the result.

    They need to put a stop to this shit downtown one way or the other. Its gone on way to long, there are those down there that think they rule the area and will try an intimidate anyone that gets in their way or disagrees with them. I still get pissed thinking about the scum bags that Harassed my Daughter and 14 year old granddaughter downtown just because she had a youth for christ TShirt on.

    I wouldn't defend it for all the tea in China but it's no where in a class with the Jan. 6 rioting.

    Yeah, and I'm bringing a great bottle of champagne which I'll drink to celebrate Biden's win and you can drink to celebrate our getting together. I somehow have this feeling that you lost on purpose. The champagne is none other than, what would you like it to be, Dom Perignon.

    How many died here? How many were at risk of dying? 0

    That building is made of concrete, steel, and glass. A burning pallet leaned against the wall is not a threat.

    Which national leader incited this behavior?

    This is nothing like the capital riots...

    The actions were the same. Regardless of who instigated or how many. The actions of a few are just as bad as the actions of many.

    so lets get detailed. The person who ignited the fire in Portland is less guilty that the person who damaged property inside on jan 6th?

    yes or no?

    Shopping lifting and murder are the same since they're both crimes.

    oh bullshit. I never said murder.
    Im talking about the insurrection and attempt to take over a federal building.

    spin spin spin.

    the effects of it will always vary. The innitial act was the same. You can make excuses all you want.

    But someone got murdurered!
    By a few. Ot the masses that tried to take over the building. Just like those who tried to take over the building on friday in Portland.

    Typical spin bullshit.

    Psst... you never talked about shoplifting either so I guess there went your entire point.
